Fueling Local Compassion & Justice

The local church is the hope of the world, but what does hope look like? When you extend compassion and pursue justice, lives are changed, needs are met, hope is found, and Jesus is made known.

At the end of each year, we give a gift above and beyond our tithes and offerings to catalyze ministry. Our 2024 Year-End Fund fuels local compassion and justice ministry and initiatives so we can serve our community in tangible ways. As inflation rises, people resettle, housing wavers, and jobs shift, the church can provide stability and familiarity to move forward.

When you give to the Year-End Fund, you fuel local Compassion and Justice, including:

  • The Willow Creek Care Center, which serves more than 34,000 people from more than 200 different cities/towns.
  • Community Resource Days, which partners with 40+ local organizations to serve people experiencing housing insecurity each week.
  • Local partnerships with organizations where God is at work fighting human trafficking, resettling refugees, helping single moms find housing, and bringing hope and healing to our community’s most vulnerable populations.
  • Initiatives like Back-to-School Bashes, Hope Packs, and refugee care

We believe the local church is a powerful agent for hope and transformation in our community. While we can’t solve every housing, immigration, legal, and employment issue, we can respond with dignity, comfort, and love to bring lasting change to those in need.
